Dear Nigel,

I too respect this source. However ICANN staff as well as others have since then provided some clarifications. The statement below does not, apparently, capture ICANN's position. We may not be wasting our time, after all.

Thank for for this update. I understand from you above reply that the statement I quoted earlier (which, apparently, you also know whence it came) is untrue. It is unfortunate that such a definitive statement came to be stated as fact -- when it was not -- in the forum that it was so stated, don't you agree? Do you think we might be able to have sight of the actual clarifications by the staff concerned, debunking this ,yth, as well as knowing who the 'others' to whom you refer as also providing clarifications. It is, of course perfectly possible for staff in one part of an organisation to make one statement, while the Board and c-suite staff pursue another strategy ... ... so the position and identity of those clarifying this are important! And the lack of detail or attribution for the clarifications you, yourself, have had the benefit of, but we have not, is a defect that I hope may soon be remedied. Thanks again for your assistance. _______________________________________________ ccTLDcommunity mailing list ccTLDcommunity@cctld-managers.org http://www.lists.cctld-managers.org/mailman/listinfo/cctldcommunity To unsubscribe please send a blank email to ccTLDcommunity-unsubscribe@lists.cctld-managers.org
